This 'You Are Here' can be found on a sign at the beginning of Lady Mary's Walk, a trail that runs alongside the Turret Burn all the way to its confluence with the River Earn on the western edge of Crieff, the Perthshire resort town on the southern edge of the Highlands.
Turretbank Wood was part of the Ochtertyre Estate until being sold for potential development in the 1970s. When planning permission was refused, the area was purchased for the people of Crieff in 2010, and is now part of the Crieff Community Trust.
The sign is situated on the south side of Turretbank Road just west of the bridge over the burn on the opposite side of the road from the large car park serving MacRosty and Taylor Parks' on the north side of the road. The sign also gives a history of the area, along with a 1920 photograph of Lady Mary's Walk.
